Fair use rationale for File:Butterworth_2.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Butterworth_2.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? feydey (talk) 08:59, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the picture until this can be sorted out. I suspect I classified it wrongly anyway. Thank you.Pabmusic (talk) 02:13, 17 June 2011 (UTC) I did classify it wrongly. It was first published in the George Butterworth Memorial Volume in the UK in 1918. I have amended the details accordingly.Pabmusic (talk) 02:31, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to And did those feet in ancient time. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Great edits, you obviously know your stuff! Thanks. ukexpat (talk) 14:23, 17 June 2011 (UTC) Thank you - I shall do soPabmusic (talk) 22:29, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to have to do this

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; you are welcome to create a new account with a username that represents only you. You should also read our conflict of interest guideline. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you.

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I do not understand what you have done or why you've done it. My user name is surely not offensive. It represents one person only (me), but you surely are aware of that from my registration. Can you please tell me what the problem is? My name is Phillip Andrew Brookes and I write mainly about music - hence PabmusicPabmusic (talk) 15:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another editor pointed out that it seems to be the name of a commercial website, one to which you seem to be affiliated. As such, it can be seen as advertising for said website. Are you saying you have no connection to that website? --Orange Mike | Talk 15:52, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When answering the above question, please bear in mind that your name, as quoted above by you, is mentioned on the website. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 17:16, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I see. I do have a website, only partly built, called pabmusic.com. It is about music and is not primarily commercial, but it does offer my services to any professional group as a writer of programmes notes. For amateur groups it gives free permission to use my writings as they wish; this is clear from the site. In fact, I have never had any commissions at all. I have used the name Pabmusic for many years to mark my own copyright on any music I have composed or arranged. I have only once had any commercial use out of this: in 2002 the BBC recorded some music by Parry that I had edited. That is referred to on the home page of my website, but it is not relevant to anything I've ever posted on yours. I hold no interest in any commercial organisation otherwise. I was always an amateur musician. I inserted a link to my website as it seemed relevant in a list of George Butterworth's music.

I worked as a Governor grade in the prison service, but In 2008 I suffered a brain haemorrhage and had to retire. I have only recently (within the last year) been able to use my computer successfully again and I have spent some of that time building my website. When I discovered Wikipaedia, I found this a constructive way to use my (considerable) musical knowledge, and I have since added a lat of good information backed up with citations, but I do find Wikipaedia very complicated to use, especially since the mechanical side of my brain doesn't function so well. In these circumstances I'm happy to back-track on anything so as to conform with your rules. Please advise me what I should do. Remove any link to my website? Change my username? (I really don't want to do the last if it's at all possible because I have trouble remembering recent events, like new passwords.) Please advise.Pabmusic (talk) 23:57, 21 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would advise a username change - to something else you can easily remember. Keep all association with pabmusic out of it - and preferably don't link to it anywhere as that can be regarded as spam (even if not actually commercial). Password can be the same if you want - I know from a case in my family about the after-effects of brain haemorrhage and know that memory can be affected for a long time. If you're agreeable to that, I'm agreeable to unblocking you for a name change. We could do with people in your branch of music. Peridon (talk) 11:00, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I second everything Peridon has said, especially about our desire not to lose folks like you from the project. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:38, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this. Yes, I’ll change my name to something I can remember. Please tell me what I need to do now.Pabmusic (talk) 03:10, 24 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
